Yep Snap.

I figure you would have to be kinda selfish not to want to give up a 10 minutes of flying time to watch Matt wring that CAP out to the limit. Given that people come from all over the world to this event I think it would be a crying shame not to have him or someone put on a show.

Not only that but Matt is one helluva giver to the RC community and well known world wide for that. Seeing him in action is an experience some people will only ever get to see once in a lifetime. And thats at the Nall.

You have to let Matt fly! This is the only way I can get my son to come down with me. That is the only part he likes.

I have to agree... Watching Matt fly his full scale demo is one of the best parts about Joe Nall! BRING HIM BACK!

Ive been driving 16 hours one way to get to the Nall, each and every year for the past 10 years. It just wont be the same if Matt is not doing his awesome demo!

i agree mat has become part of the nall.. a week of great flying, noon demos,MATT going all out, and the BBQ. take any of them away and its not the same!!!!!!!besides i usaly take a food and drink break while the flight line is down for matt so IMO matt is a part of the nall...

the nall is the world's best event and i think that matt adds a over the top edge to it. we all fly airplanes and because of that we all are a part of the avition world. and as a rc pilot i enjoy watching the rc planes alone with the full scale ones. planes are planes its just a matter of size.......

As everyone knows the Nall is not open to the public, but it is open to AMA members and their guests. It would help the people working at the gate if your friends call you on your cell phone and you meet them at the gate. You could let them try to talk thier way though gate, but this is sometimes not successful LOL.

There is no charge for ladies and children.

One adder to this. Starting this year we are allowing anyone that is a member of any flying organization in the gate this year. (Of course after paying) Example: AOPA, EAA, Civil Air Patrol, …

And yet one more adder, PLEASE go to the www.joenall.com website and down load the wavier form for every one in your car and have filled out. This makes getting in alot quicker for every one. Also if you are planning on flying please go ahead a pre register, this also makes every thing go much faster.

Laura,

Does this mean that AMA or MAAC membership are no longer required to enter the grounds? I recall you saying in the past, that this was a strick policy, unless the visitors were accompanied by somewho who is an AMA member.

I lost count of how many cars with families [some had driven quite a distance to come to see MATT CHAPMAN fly his Cap] that were turned away at the gate, because they were not a member, or were not there with someone who was...

Not trying to question what ever rules are now set out, but rather just looking for clarifacation. I did not find anything on the website about it. Thanks
